Have you thought about replacing your phone with a pocket notebook?

Continuing from my recent post about notebooks… Obviously this does not replace messaging or calls, but what about a 📓 notebook you carry around everywhere: it doesn’t have an agenda to keep you hooked. Reach for it when you would have reached for your 📱 phone.

I am trying to do this (my ‘pocket’ in my system) but so far it’s harder than I thought! I am carrying a Moleskine Cahier pocket and a Delite brass pocket fountain pen. I make an entry with the week’s plan, and then a dated entry for anything that occurs to me. I have in the back:

• A reminders page (using post-its as it is very temporary)
• A percolating thoughts page
• A blog post page
• A ledger for my spending
• A wishlist
